I rooted with no probs after installing MJ9. Sadly, according to SamMobile, no region or country has received any newer updates than MJ9. Most regions have received MJ9 now, though. We still wait for the multi-user enabling and lag reducing update which is out for the p600 (MK1) :(
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] deuzdabiker:
Hi,

I have an Old SPV E200. My problem is that my bootloader is in version 1.05 and all the updates you can found on the net are working only with version 1.07. When I try to update my ROM, I become an error message 113 and the progress bar stay down at 0% :evil:

So I tried to update my Bootloader, but to do it, I need to have some files they contain the bootloader : eboot.bin & chain.lst

So, can someone help me? Has someone this files (from your SPV e200, I think they are visible in the memory of the phone) or can someone explain me how to update my ROM or my Bootloader in an alternative way?

Thanks in advance for your interest

This ROM is under heavy development.

This is a Patch release, things may be broken.

Overview

Side Note: For some reason my phone doesn't like CWM, It is unable to mount E:/, If anyone could help I'd appreciate it as it would speed this up considerably.

This is MIUI v5 based on our stock blur stuff, I'd like to know if it boots and if so, what's wrong with it if anything, It built w/out an error message so...

First boot will take a while, be patient.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoneXDA:
Do you have WiFi and aGPS location reporting off? It could slow down position locking.

Sometimes my Nexus 4 GPS antenna hangs though, a restart and locking on via Maps helps for some reason, I use the app GPS Stats to see how many satellites the phone's seeing, but I guess you've done that. Maybe try out a tracking SW like Locus or something and see if the phone remains locked when moving for a longer period of time like going home from work, if GPS signal constantly goes away I'd recommend contacting Google on the issue. They'll either confirm to look into it or offer a replacement.

I'm having a problem with GPS on mine as well. I play Ingress which is a location-based game made by Niantic (owned by Google). I have a lot of experience playing this game back to January on my Nexus 4 and have also played on my Nexus 7. The Nexus 5 is slow to lock and has much greater error than the Nexus 4 as reported by GPS Status when I am holding phones side-by-side. It seems to really perform worse under non-ideal conditions (inside a car, near tall buildings, bad weather). It seems to lose lock or otherwise have greater error under those conditions especially. I have heard of people who have no apparent issues though so it could be my device is just defective.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uncle Irish:
+1 under the exact same conditions. Really pissed me off blowing through L8's and "all resonators missed" pops up when I'm on top of the goddamn thing.

I came from the Note2 and noticed that the GPS kind of acts like a kid who didn't get the tootsie roll so just acts like a lil punk and doesn't listen or do what they're told. Nothing as horrible as the old Captivate fiasco, but nowhere near other devices I've owned. I'm guessing an update or two can fix it (along with the camera and signal drop issues)

I also have problems with the GPS.

The satellites are really long to fix (approx 5min, even with aGPS), and the signal drop quickly.

Only way to play Ingress : wifi positioning.

It is impossible for me to use Navigation in car :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iggyikky:
same here

Same problem here on pure stock, no root. In car navigation is useless. Gps status toolbox is able to make it fix for a little while but signal is lost again after a (few) minute(s). Only thing I might have done out of the ordinary is switch from dalvik to ART. Gonna revert that just to see. Will report.

Reverting tot dalvik doesn't Fix it. so as a test, unlocked bootloader and reflahed stock firmware from google page so it was pristine again. No joy, no GPS lock.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swoon_:
There are some various threads also on the issue. I have found that the GPS appears to improve when I applied some pressure to the area below where the camera is on the back. The GPS antena is here and there is some hypothesis that the antenna may not be secured properly resulting in the poor performance. I was able to have better results playing Ingress after doing this. Per GPS Status, performance still not as good as my N4 so will probably RMA soon. It would be interesting if some having the issue tries applying the pressure to see if there is any improvement.

I'll test applying pressure to the back of the phone later but that's obviously not a long term solution.

EDIT: Applying pressure didn't seem to help.

I was on ART and couldn't get a lock. Switched back to Dalvik and it locked right away the first time. Turned off all GPS/Wifi/etc and waited 5 minutes. Second time could not get a lock whatsoever so I did the usual wipe cache/etc and uninstalled the GPS test app and re-installed and still nothing.

Calling Google.

EDIT#2: RMA on the way. Google support could not confirm whether other users were reporting problems. Rather than wait for a software fix I'm taking my chances with a new device.

Try 2G Network mode on Mobile Network Settings

Actually, this problem persists since Nexus 4 with Jelly Bean jwr66y update. GPS Status app show me that my GPS got really weak signals when I'm in 3G networks, but it got really strong signals and work very well when I choose 2G network mode in 'Mobile Network Settings'. I wonder is it the some problem with you guys? If it is, then it's absolutely Android bug, not hardware issue.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asawoszc:
Not sure I agree. My nexus 4 is rock solid with GPS on any network mode (LTE/H+/2G) and always has been. Even in areas where my signal isn't strong the GPS wouldn't ever falter.

I've posted my personal findings at http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/nexus/EkllXr0ZlZM now that I have my RMA device in hand also and can do side-by-side comparisons.

That's kinda strange. What version of Android do you installed in your N4? Here 2 screenshots of GPS Status on my N4. First, I use 3G network (as you can see on the signal bar at the top of the screen) and waited about 3 minutes outdoor under clear sky. Weak signals. Then, still standing on the same spot, I switch to 2G Network and look at those bars, and the time it needs to get fix, work perfectly.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scuttlefield:
Well I finally fixed the GPS problems on my Nexus 5! Turns out that the problem is with the contacts on the phone not making a good connection with the GPS antennae on the back cover. If you're okay with doing a little surgery (it really wasn't that hard), get some cardstock or construction paper, some electrical tape, a pin, and some strong fingernails and watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBpNtWvY454 (FYI: I just used my fingernails to pry off the back cover (which was actually the hardest part of the whole process) and I used the pin to gently lift the GPS contacts in order to put the cardstock underneath it.)

I'm now getting a GPS lock in under 10 seconds (inside my house, no less!). Before, I couldn't get it to lock at all.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_Big_H:

On the package.

Mine is 402K (White, 16GB) and it looks like it suffers from "stuck" speeds when standing completely still. exiting and re-entering the gps client (waze, gpstest, etc...) seems to temporarily fix the problem. This is very frustrating.

I thought it's a 4.4.4 bug at first, but after reading some posts here, it seems to be a hardware defect, even if the lock is relatively quick, with some satellites (usually 1-2) reach sensitivity of 40-42db, which supposed to be rather good.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davionlip:
I just realised something weird.

Scenario

I have two nexus devices.

-nexus 7 (2012)

-nexus 5

When both my nexus devices have their location reporting switched on, I cannot get a proper lock on either one of them.

After disabling location reporting on my nexus 7 (2012), my nexus 5 instantly locks (very accurate lock).

Problem is reproducible.

I'll be monitoring my nexus 5 for the next few days.

Hope its not a one off lucky thing.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fatherboard:
Location reporting is disabled in my case, and it still sux.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THUDUK:
I thought gps issues where a thing of the past these days, but since ive had my Nexus 5, my running logs have been all over the place, even my old Iphone 4 did a better job.

I use GPS a lot, for logging my walking, running and ordinance mapping, so this is real problem.

Problem is the GPS can sometimes take forever to fix, even after using GPS Status, downloading the gps data file, then its gets a fix, and keeps dropping the signal. then it will be fine for a while, then all of a sudden im running at 52mph, now either im superman or there is something wrong:)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fatherboard:
Just replaced my white 402K with a brand new 405K, and the gps acts exactly the same(!) - first try, 3-20 kp/h at complete halt with 5-20 meters of accuracy. Exiting the application and reentering, 0 kp/h at complete halt with 3-10 meters accuracy. It looks like the gps looses calibration every two sessions or so.

The antenna is probably not the issue. I able to get pretty good signal (up to 44 DBm) with both devices. It's probably software after all. Kinda lame we have to deal with GPS issues in 2014. Much older devices, even without A-GPS manage to handle it rather well, whilst the N5 struggles.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GB15Packers:
I fixed this problem for my Nexus 5 by using the app "Faster GPS" to make a new GPS.conf file, although you need to be rooted. Set the region and country to your own respectively. Then adjust intermediate_pos to a value of 1 and make accuracy_thres a value of 5000. This will give you an instantaneous lock with an accuracy of about 2 miles or so, but gets more accurate by the second. I thought this was a definite software issue that had to be fixed by google, but was very pleased to learn that it is fixable by the user, as long as you are rooted.

I've only just noticed that my Nexus 5 has this issue. I recently moved house and now do a lot more driving so I use my phone for navigation. My girlfriend has an N5 too (bought on release day) and her device is easily the better of the two.

I just slipped some card underneath the connections in my phone to improve the contact, and hers is still far better, although mine did improve a little.

Seeing as mine is out of warranty, is it possible to get the device replaced because it is a manufacturer defect? I know I just tried to fix the thing which I probably shouldn't have done, but still, its a pain in the ass. Even when I'm in central London I can't get decent lock standing in the middle of a bridge with no buildings in the way!

stop messing with antenna if you noticed issue with 5.1

with 5.1 issue is when accuracy mode is set to high. This uses wifi and cell towers along with gps from satellite and there is a bug. If you just enable GPS only the issue will go away.

It would sure be nice if Android could use the internal GPS or external Bluetooth device like my old Nokia/Symbian phones did. Unfortunately using mock locations with an app and a Bluetooth GPS puck won't work while playing Ingress.
